Nautical themes to chart your course for summer!
Dear Knitting Friend,
Summer’s the season when we’re really drawn to the water. Whether you have plans to spend time seaside, lakeside, or riverside, our Nautical Knitting Collection has two dozen patterns that celebrate all things nautical. From whimsical sweaters to trendy totes, there are projects here for all of us who hear the call of the sea! We have projects for your little sailors, too. Here’s a sampling of what you’ll find in our Nautical Knitting Collection!
Seaside Summer Wear
Our Nautical Knitting Collection features a symphony of stripes, starting with the Boathouse Row Vest. With wide stripes, rolled stockinette edgings, and an i-cord tie, this vest is a great project for confident early knitters as well as more experienced knitters. Plan your promenade along the water’s edge as you make our Captain’s Jacket. The A-line body gives this sweater elegant lines — plus, it has pockets and a removable hood! The Dockside Sweater is a pattern rated easy, with a lace-up V-neck and sleeves that contrast beautifully with the body. Answer the call of the sea with this super stripey sweater!
Other sweaters in our Nautical Knitting Collection include the Harbor Hoodie, a relaxed, open-front, hooded cardigan; the Nantucket Pullover in classic seaside colors and a flattering stripe pattern; the Coastal Cover Up, a pretty poncho with lots of lace; and our Pacific Poncho, perfect to slip on before your morning walk.
Fits You to a T
Sometimes you need something a little lighter than a full sweater. Step out in style in our Ahoy May-Tee, with a lovely cable accent and beautifully shaped ribbing. This eye-catching knit tee is a fantastic project for experienced knitters, and it’s virtually seamless! The First Mate Tee is a striped delight, with a delicate drape and flattering pleats. It’s sure to perk up your summer wardrobe! Other tees in our Nautical Knitting Collection include the Pacifica Stripes Tee, an easy, seamless pattern perfect for three-season wear, and our Starboard Stripe Tank with its understated A-line shaping and delicate side striping.
Kids’ Corner
Don’t forget the little ones in your knitting planning. Picture your favorite baby in our adorable Maritime Cardigan. An intermediate pattern knit from the top down, it features eye-catching medallions front and back. Finish it off with some fun buttons, and this short-sleeved sweater will make the perfect summer cover up. Set sail for smiles with our Little Sailor Baby Vest, complete with an intarsia sailboat on the front. Buttons at the shoulders make for easy dressing. Our Lighthouse Dress is bold and beautiful, and perfect for playtime. Does someone need a new stuffy? We have two different whale patterns that the young ones will love! Pick from Walter the Whale and Wally the Whale.
Light as a Breeze
Summer’s a great excuse to make a new shawl. Our Sun & Sea Shawl is a perfect travel or TV project for beginning knitters and beyond. Use our suggested color scheme, or pick your own summer colors! Or wrap yourself up in our High Tide Tasseled Shawl. The combination of a gradient yarn with a neutral stripe evokes the feeling of the tide rolling in.
The weather can change in an instant, and it pays to be prepared. Knit up our Anchors Away Scarf and keep it handy in your tote bag or purse for when you need to keep the chill off. It’s light, lacy, and lovely! Another great chill-buster is our Sweet Begonia Shawlette. Start with the lacy edging and then work in short rows to create a captivating crescent shape. Need something a little warmer to fend off a stiff breeze? Our Marina Infinity Scarf will do the trick. Knit in the round with stripes of varying widths, this scarf feels as good as it looks.
Summery Stripes
No summer trip is complete without the right tote. Our water-themed totes will carry your stuff in style. The Stella Striped Bag (featured on our cover) puts a jaunty spin on traditional nautical stripes. Knit it flat with vertical stripes, then pick up stitches to work up a base of horizontal stripes. Made with nylon cord and lined with felt, this bag will hold up to all your summer adventures! Our Bon Voyage Tote is bright and bold with wide stripes and a great double seed stitch texture. And nothing says “nautical” like our Aweigh We Go Tote, complete with a classic anchor motif.
Wherever your summer travels take you, cast off on your adventure and cast on some of the projects from our Nautical Knitting Collection. Wishing you smooth sailing!
